  Orson Welles, born in 1915 in Kenosha, Wisconsin, emerged as a multifaceted force in the realms of radio and cinema. His early foray into the arts began in his teenage years, and by 1938, he achieved nationwide recognition for his radio adaptation of H.G. Wells' "The War of the Worlds." This broadcast, presented as a series of news bulletins about a Martian invasion, caused widespread panic and showcased Welles' ability to captivate audiences through innovative storytelling. 
   
  Welles' transition to film was marked by the groundbreaking "Citizen Kane" in 1941. In this masterpiece, he played a pivotal role as co-writer, director, producer, and actor. Although it faced challenges initially, "Citizen Kane" has since garnered acclaim for its narrative innovation and technical achievements. This film not only solidified Welles' position in cinema but also left an indelible mark on the history of filmmaking. 
   
  Despite early successes, Welles encountered difficulties in Hollywood, struggling to secure funding and facing interference with some of his projects. His subsequent films, such as "The Magnificent Ambersons" (1942), "Touch of Evil" (1958), and "Chimes at Midnight" (1965), showcased his creative prowess but also reflected the challenges he faced in the industry. 
   
  Welles' contributions extended beyond filmmaking; he excelled as an actor, featuring prominently in films like "The Third Man" (1949) and "Compulsion" (1959). His performances, coupled with his distinctive voice, added layers to his artistic legacy. 
   
  As he navigated the complexities of the film industry, Welles remained active, taking on diverse roles in projects like "The Trial" (1962) and "A Man for All Seasons" (1966). His resilience and willingness to challenge conventional norms continued to define his career.

  An Original Audiobook Production from W. F. Howes, read by the Stoltman Brothers with exclusive audio content 
   
  When Loch Morlich freezes over, we cut a hole in the ice and jump in… 
   
  Tom “The Albatross” and Luke “the Highland Oak” Stoltman are the world’s strongest brothers. Between them, they’ve won everything there is to win in the mighty world of Strongman. Tom can deadlift a 430kg bar to hip height, equivalent to about seven washing machines. Luke isn't far behind. Yet for the Stoltmans, being strong is about more than pure muscle. It's about overcoming adversity. And it's about honouring their biggest fan: their mother, who died in 2016 leaving the family devastated. 
   
  But they’ve also transcended the sport, not least through launching the hugely successful online Stoltman Strength Academy. Through it all, they’ve stayed true to their roots in the Highlands of Scotland, giving back to their community, their family, and each other. 
   
  But it wasn’t always like this. Back in 2010, Luke worked full time on oil rigs in the North Sea, and Tom was a teenager that the rest of the world had written off due to his autism. 
   
  How did two lads from Invergordon conquer the world? Simple. They started lifting. 
   
  In their astonishing autobiography, Tom and Luke Stoltman are going to show you how to lift. How to lift the lid on life with autism. How to lift yourself out of the darkness of bereavement. How to lift the trophy at the World's Strongest Man. 
  LIFTING is the story of two athletes pushing themselves, and each other, to the limits. 
   
  Packed with bonus audio content, you can hear Luke and Tom in conversation as they discuss training plans, life goals, favourite music tracks for the gym and most importantly – spicy food.

  "This is the Way." In Star Wars and Philosophy Strikes Back, the Way wends through entirely new adventures in the Star Wars galaxy far, far away: not only the films of the Skywalker saga, but also Rebels, The Bad Batch, Rogue One, Solo, and The Mandalorian. Like the creators of these films and television series, the authors in this book harness the magical mix of humor, action, empathy, characterization, adventure, and fan service that constitutes Star Wars. 
   
   
   
  In addition to thorny metaphysical questions about the nature of time and free will, this volume highlights the staggering cultural impact of George Lucas's universe. The newest Star Wars narratives tackle ethnicity on alien worlds and how love and sex with a droid like L3-37 would work ("It works"). The connections between the Separatist Freedom Movement and the struggle for social justice in the USA in the twenty-first century are brought to light. And philosophical second looks at Rian Johnson's The Last Jedi prove there is much more to this controversial entry in the Skywalker saga. 
   
   
   
  Thirty-six philosophers, both sages and scoundrels among them, examine the full range of deep questions throughout the Star Wars chronology—from The Phantom Menace to The Rise of Skywalker and beyond. "They have spoken."
